At least eight bank employees and a security guard were lined up and shot dead in the head in one of the bloodiest bank robberies in the Philippines, police said.

One employee was in critical condition in hospital.

The victims were found sprawled on the floor of a branch of the Rizal Commercial Banking Corp in Cabuyao town in Laguna province, south of Manila, after the bank failed to open as scheduled at 9am and suspicious customers alerted authorities, Chief Superintendent Ricardo Padilla said.
